Political Vitriol: An American Tradition

  

    

A diversity of ideas is good—even essential—for democracy. But during this political season, essayist Erin Pryor Ackerman sees a danger when viewpoints get polarized and rhetoric becomes vitriolic.

Erin grew up on public radio in Wisconsin and has continued to listen as she's moved from Indiana to Utah to (finally) Wyoming. When not listening to WPM, she enjoys cooking, reading, hiking and snowshoeing.
